The OPERA collaboration has claimed evidence of superluminal {\nu}{_\mu} propagation between CERN and the LNGS. Cohen and Glashow argued that such neutrinos should lose energy by producing photons and e+e- pairs, through Z0 mediated…
We suggest that the recently observed superluminal neutrino propagation observed by OPERA may have an environmental origin that can simultaneously explain the DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation. Our proposal can be unambiguously tested by the…
